She'll Wake You In The Morning



As She Fills Your Head At Night



She'll Drop By, Without Warning



Just When You Thought You Were Doing All Right



You Think She's In California



But She Has Never Been So Near







Mother Fear







She Was There The Day You Turned Your Cheek



She Led You From The Fight



She Was In Your Throat, When You Couldn't Speak



She Sings Harmony Tonight



She Knew Just Where You Lived



She Brought The Sedatives



She Brought The Whiskey And The Beer







Mother Fear, Mother Fear, Mother Fear







That Peaceful Feeling's So Deceiving



You Check The Kids To See They're Breathing







And As You Watch Your House Come Tumbling Down



She Stands Beside You In The Rubble



She'll Be The First To Recognize The Sound



Of The Bursting Of The Bubble







And As You Prance And Pose



In Your New Emperor's Clothes



She'll Get The Crowd To Laugh And Cheer



And Here She Comes







Mother Fear, Mother Fear
